Chugong’sSolo Levelinghas some big things planned in the upcoming future, with a movie release in December and the second season that is coming out at the beginning of 2025. While the anime series has already grabbed the top spot in the industry, it still has a lot of work to do if it really wants to give tough competition to the big hitters of the anime industry.
Although the narrative and different plot structures ofSolo Levelingare top-notch, it needs to keep some consistency in the animation quality of the series. While A-1 Pictures did a great job overall with season 1, it still had some moments that were not liked by fans in terms of animation. Thus, it could become a big issue for the upcomingSolo Levelingprojects.
The animation quality has always been one of the most important aspects for anime fans, and the biggest example of this is Reki Kawahara’sSword Art Online. WhileSword Art Onlinewas criticized on a lot of fronts, it still managed to make a place for itself solely because of its animation.
Solo LevelingHas A Lot On Its Plate
When the news aboutChugong’sManhwaSolo Levelinggetting an anime adaptation was disclosed, it quickly became one of the biggest topics in the anime industry. In fact, the anime series got the title of the “Most Anticipated Anime of 2024.” And to a certain extent, the anime series did justice to the extremely popular Manhwa series.

Soon after it ended, the popularity ofSolo Levelingforced A-1 Pictures and Crunchyroll to announce the second season,Solo Leveling – Arise from the Shadow, which got a teaser trailer a few months back. As fans were getting ready for the second season, Crunchyroll came back with another surprise. The streaming platform announcedSolo Leveling – ReAwakening.
Solo Leveling – ReAwakeningis a movie that will primarily focus on a recap of season 1 and also include the first two episodes of season 2.
The movie is scheduled to be released on July 21, 2025, and it will essentially set the stage forSolo Leveling – Arise from the Shadow.
The One Thing WhereSolo LevelingNeeds To Focus On
As mentioned above, the first season ofSolo Levelingwas greatly appreciated by fans, butthere were a few glitches in the animation qualitythat got criticism. This is the one aspect where A-1 Pictures needs to follow theSword Art Onlineroute and bring out the best inSolo Leveling. WhenSword Art Onlinefirst came out, it had a lot of issues that led to its failure.
But the one thing for whichSword Art Onlineis appreciated to this day is its wonderful animation quality, thrilling transitions, and art direction. In fact, despite being an underwhelming anime series, it is considered to be one of the greatest works ever done by A-1 Pictures.

Solo Levelingis available to watch on Crunchyroll.
